Sometimes I feel Amazon panders to the lazy. Anyway, a Part of Analytical and Syntopical reading is X-raying the skeleton of a book yourself. I forget if passages showing that most people highlighted was a part of X-raying but that is, again, for people who need training-wheels and don't trust their own quoting ability. I don't miss the features with my Nook.
Why, as an expert reader, am I suppose to care about what most other people highlighted in a book ? I highlight what I want highlighted plain and simple.
You may disagree with what I just said but that is how I see it or my opinion (2 cents)

Personally I couldn't care less about X-ray, Popular Highlights, Word Wise, Vocabulary Builder and other stuff like that. Never used them. But many people do.
